Will NVMe M.2 form factor SSDs placed in an U.2 2.5" enclosure perform similar to their U.2 counter parts? And can they be used with the Supermicro's NVMe server lineup? Any enclosure recommendations?
Hi,

Thanks!

While oogling assorted NVMe gear, I ran across a bit of an oddball device. U.2 2.5" form factor device that hosts a PCIe switch and 4 M.2 22110 drives. An interesting potential alternative to an Amfeltec Squid.

Is there any known compatibily issue?
I'm running this on gigabyte z390 aorus ultra with server 2016.
Already update the firmware, driver and bios as well.
Strange thing is, i can't see the bios menu of the sas card during boot, is it supposed to be that way?
Hi folks, i'm looking to get hba card that could be used with breakout sata cable, either sff 8087 / 8088 to sata.
And it must also be able to be able to hit 6Gbps, cause ive read some dell card only hits 3Gbps for each drive.. Trim capability would be nice too
Any recommendations?

Just picked up an Intel Coffee Lake NUC. I've ordered a single M.2 NVMe SSD (1TB Samsung 970 Evo Plus).
Wanted to run a few test VMs at home on it, nothing critical.
Would ZFS be the best filesystem to use or would XFS/ext4 be better?
